Testimonials

“You cannot help but be moved by the Fred’s Team coaches and runners who run with this team year after year with a greater purpose in mind. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of Fred's Team — the training and especially the fundraising, which has given me renewed confidence that we are going to ultimately make a real impact in the fight against cancer.” — Robert M., ING New York City Marathon

"I participated in 'my own event,' and the support and motivation provided by Fred's Team was priceless even though I was the only member running the race! I am humbled to be part of such a great cause." — Meg B., Kiawah Island Half-Marathon

“I was diagnosed with leukemia four years ago. This is my fourth marathon in the past three years and my third one running with Fred’s team. It’s because of money that was raised that the doctors at Memorial Sloan Kettering were able to find a miracle drug for someone like me. I’m running with hope that more people like me can be helped and go on to live a full life.” — Rebecca P., ING New York City Marathon

“Running for Fred’s Team is such an incredibly fulfilling experience! The support along the race route is wonderful, and your staff is absolutely amazing from beginning to end. No matter how large the crowd, the instant bond you feel with other Fred’s Team runners is different and very special. I will keep trying to recruit my friends and above all, I look forward to a world without cancer.” — Jen M., NYC Half-Marathon

“When my patients hear that their doctors and nurses are running with Fred’s Team to support research into the disease they have, they admire that. Marathon day is a great day, and it's even better when you’re wearing a Fred's Team shirt.” — Dr. Mark Kris, Chief of the Thoracic Oncology Service, MSKCC — ING New York City Marathon and NYC Half-Marathon

“The hotel benefit just made the morning of the race so much easier and stress free. The breakfast on race morning, and the ease of boarding the bus and going right to the staging area…was fantastic. Crossing the finish line is a great feeling — but doing it while wearing a Fred's team jersey and knowing the money that was raised makes it so much more fulfilling for me — so THANK YOU for making it all possible!” — Michael M., ING New York City Marathon

“Being a member of Fred's Team changed my life in so many ways. I made wonderful new friends, took my running to a new level, and was reminded to appreciate each and every day. I had run several marathons before joining Fred's Team, but nothing compares to the joy I've felt running as part of this awesome group!” — Becky D., ING New York City Marathon

“Running is the easy part--caring for the kids and fundraising 4+ million dollars is what it’s all about!” — John F., ING New York City Marathon

“The Fred's Team folks at the finish area were absolutely fantastic. It's a treat for a runner to get that special treatment after a tough day on the road! I feel privileged to be a part of such a fine group of people.” — Mark N., ING New York City Marathon

“Yesterday was a bittersweet day for me as I ran in celebration of my sister, Amy's life. It was very emotional but I am so glad I was able to find a way to honor and remember her. I felt proud wearing my Fred's Team t-shirt. “'Choose Your Own Event" was the perfect option for me. It allowed me to combine my love of running locally with family and friends close by plus fulfill a wish my sister had to raise funds and awareness. Thank you for your help and professional manner in obtaining this goal for me. I am very grateful. This will not be my last event!” — Randi K., Rock and Roll Half Marathon Arizona
